Boob job on the NHS

[Hazel]

Just wondering if anyone has got any experience of this.

My friend has lost a lot of weight and has been left with lots of excess skin and no boobs.

She has always been a big girl, size 22/24 at her biggest but was usually about an 18 and has managed to get down to a size 8/10 . This has left her with LOTS of baggy skin. She's been this size for over a year now, she's got 3 kids and doesn't plan on having any more and is divorced so would like to meet someone new at some point but is too self concious about her body. As she's only 29 I thought she might be able to get something done on the NHS.

Anyone know anything about this????

Dont quote me on it but im pretty sure she can get this on NHS if it is affecting her life....I imagine it affects her confidence and self-esteem a bit so thats her reason right there. Best thing she can do is have a chat with her doctor and let him/her know exactly how she feels.....dont just concentrate on the physical but the sexual and emotional aspects aswell.

Lots of luck to your friend!

I've heard the same. If you hate your body and is making you depressed then i think you can.

My mums friend is getting a tummy tuck on the NHS.

As far as I'm aware all she has to do is stay at the same weight for a set amount of time.

Good Luck to your friend!

A friend of mine was very unhappy and went to the docs as her feelings about herself were terrible. she got put on th nhs waiting list

Its possible she can. Depends how they base their criteria.

If she does get on an NHS waiting list it could be a loooooooooooong wait till she gets an op though.

I will tell her to go to docs. She really deserves to have something done as she's lost so much weight and can't wear shorts or swimming costumes because of all the skin.
